The app for independent voices

Was at the Denver ‘No Kings’ March. I took a poll asking 107 people there if they had ever held a government official accountable to the laws of their duties. A lot of ‘we shoulds.’ A lot more of “I don’t have any powers.” Had to remind those that the Colorado Constitution Article 2, Sections 1 & 2 both state that all power comes from the people. Some said they vote, which is only the Criminal Recycling Program. Some were very smug about their voting changing the lawlessness of our officials. I asked all who said yes to cite the statute they used to hold them accountable. Only 2 could do that. I retired reporter and an attorney.

Bumped into 2 Colorado politicians that routinely violate law. One said to send an email of the details of the laws he is violating. The other lied and said he follows laws. I called out his lies with a couple of status he violated. He walked away.

Results:

2 Yes, they have held government officials accountable to the laws of their duties.

105 No

Too much apathy in America. So, the criminals keep getting away with it.
